The phrase “it works on my machine” has become a universal frustration among engineering teams. When development and production environments drift, teams face unpredictable deployments, prolonged debugging sessions, and increased customer impact.

This talk examines how platform engineering can resolve these issues through environmental consistency. By adopting Infrastructure-as-Code, GitOps workflows, and standardized deployment pipelines, organizations can create reproducible systems that behave the same across environments. Attendees will gain insights into why consistency is essential—not just for faster delivery, but for system reliability, developer productivity, and user trust.
